This needs clarification.  I do not mean "it is more plausible that
it wants remote-tracking rather than local".  What I meant was that
between the two cases, pushing refs/remotes/foo:foo is more likely a
sign that the user wants to create a local branch than pushing other
random sha1 expression, like 40eaf9377fe649:foo, is.
